    I threw my old one out of the window, which didn't totally destroy it, after that, it met my baseball bat , and my friend's axe. Good times good times

    I would use it as a web server or to try out new operating systems on.

    I'd format it, reinstall Windows XP with as much antivirus as possible and all updates. Make a ghost image and burn it to a CD, and use it to get cracks. You can reformat with everything in ~20 minutes.
